Warm UpList all the forms of energy you

used this morning before you arrived at school…

Be ready to share with the class

Warm UpElectrical Energy (alarm clock,

TV, lights, microwave)Sound Energy (hairdryer)Chemical Energy (eating )Mechanical Energy (making my

bed)Kinetic Energy (brushing my

teeth)

Test Back ….Track Now!You will get Part 1 of your test

back nowTrack this on your tracking sheetObjective: 6.P.2.2 States of

Matter 6.P.2.3 Properties of

MatterWe will go over this together in

class

Interactive notebookFind the next blank page in your notebook

We are continuing Energy 6.P.3: Learning Set 1.1

Add this to your table of contents

PBIS TEXTBOOKWe will read page EN 19 togetherLook at the pictures on page EN

19 What different types of energy do

you see

Volunteers…

Wind energyElectricity

Mechanical Energy (moving parts)

Write in your notebook:Observations: Any

information collected with the senses.

SightSmellTasteTouchHearing

Write in your notebook:Inference: Conclusions or deductions based on your observations.

Inference: An Educated guess.

When we make many observations over time, we can then make inferences

Now it’s your turn……

Let’s make some observations….I see a dirt roadI see a puddleI see green tress

We inference can we make?

This road could be in the countryIt appears it just rainedI think it is summer because all

the trees are green

More Inference Practice:My Observations:I hear people screamingI smell popcorn and cotton candyHamburgers cost $5.00 eachI see a lot of people in line

Inference = ?Now, turn and talk with your partner1 minute

Volunteers….

Turn in your textbook to page EN 20Read this entire page silently

What’s happening?On my desk, I have a cup of iceSince we started class, the ice

has started to melt

What’s happening?Why did this happen? The room is warmer than the ice, so

the energy moved from the warmer room to the colder ice

Can we see the energy begin transferred?

NOWhat is the indicator that shows us

energy is being transferred? Ice cubes are melting into liquid water

Let’s think about this…How do we know energy is being

transferred since we cannot see it?

We will record some vocabulary words now that help to explain this!

Write in your notebook:

Indicate: to show

Write in your notebook:

Indicators: The things we can see, hear, touch, smell or taste that can tell us about something.

Write in your notebook:

Infer: to interpret (figure out) from observations

Radiometer Observations Handout

Let’s look at each column and understand what the columns represent:

Conditions (these are given to you)Observations(what do you see

happening)Causes (why did this happen)

Radiometer Observations Handout

Conditions

A dark classroom

Outside in the shade

Outside in the sun

What is a radiometer?

Draw this picture now!

Pay close attention to the color of the flags inside the radiometer

Radiometer Observations HandoutYou will now see 3 different

demonstrationsWe will have to walk outside to

complete 2 of the observationsYou will need to take your

notebook and this handout with you

Does anyone have any questions?

Radiometer Observations Handout

ObservationsSitting on the cart,

the flags did not move

Sitting in the shade, the flags spun slowly

Outside in the sun, the flags spun very

fast

How does it do that?Read page EN 24Complete the Causes column

What caused the flags to start spinning?

Think about the colors of the flags…

Black absorbs energyWhite reflect energyThis causes the air inside

the radiometer to heat up differently. This causes the air inside to start moving.

This moving air causes the flags to spin!

Radiometer Observations Handout

Causes

There was no radiant energy in our

classroomThere was only

indirect radiant energy the shade

There was direct radiant energy on the

radiometer

Radiometer Observations Questions

Copy each question and answer silently in your notebook:

1. What happened to the flags outside in the sun?

They started to spin very fast2. What might the movement of

the flags be an indicator of? Radiant energy

Radiometer Observations Questions

4. What can we infer from our observation? The radiometer transfers radiant energy into kinetic energy which makes the flags inside spin

Things that use Electrical energy in

the home

Things that use Chemical energy in

the home

Complete the table now (6 minutes)

All of these devices transform 1 type of energy into another form of energy.
